.. because I want to make the 'install_and_run' script useful for non-synapse
jobs, which do not accept --python. In any case we set up the path here, so
sytest shouldn't be guessing it.

Add prometheus config

Issue template for Synapse

Added instructions for checking server version.

Responding to review comments.

... from https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-prometheus-config.

Removed the sentence encouraging people not to file a bug - if people are in doubt we'd rather they filed a bug than gave up entirely.

Oops capital L.

A new issue template proposed to try and steer people towards #matrix:matrix.org for support queries relating to running their own homeserver.

Since we didn't instansiate the PusherPool at start time it could fail
at run time, which it did for some users.

This may or may not fix things for those users, but it should happen at
start time and stop the server from starting.

Increase default cache size

Improve the error handling for bad invites received over federation

Prefill forward extrems and event to state groups

Cache macaroon parse and validation

Turns out this can be quite expensive for requests, and is easily
cachable. We don't cache the lookup to the DB so invalidation still
works.

Use an ExpiringCache for storing registration sessions

This is because pruning them was a significant performance drain on
matrix.org

Make workers report to master for user ip updates

Batch upsert user ips

Reject local events that don't round trip the DB

Fix up indices for users_who_share_rooms
